The Department of Health reported the country’s first cases of Covid-19 omicron subvariants XBB.1.5 and CH.1.1.
The XBB.1.5 is currently classified by the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control as a “variant of interest due to its increasing prevalence globally and enhanced immune evading properties,” the DOH said. “According to the rapid risk assessment done by the World Health Organization , there is moderate-strength evidence for increased risk of transmission and immune escape,” the DOH said.
On the other hand, the CH.1.1 has been classified by the ECDC as “a variant under monitoring, due to its increasing prevalence and potential for immune escape,” the DOH said.“Currently available evidence for the subvariant does not suggest any differences in disease severity and/or clinical manifestations compared to the original Omicron variant,” the DOH said.
